1. eBay seller account type.
Depending on the place of registration, eBay accounts are divided into domestic accounts and overseas accounts, but domestic accounts are subject to more restrictions on eBay, and overseas accounts have a relatively obvious competitive advantage. According to the different registered entities, seller accounts are divided into ordinary accounts and corporate accounts, and ordinary accounts are divided into personal accounts and business accounts.
2. eBay account registration.
Registering as an eBay member only requires a few simple steps, which is free and fast. Sellers need to register a personal account. Registering an account is the first step for sellers to open overseas direct sales. Chinese sellers can enter the registration page by clicking the “Register” button on eBay.
After entering the eBay registration page, fill in your name, email address, password and other information according to the actual situation. You can also apply to become a business account here. After filling in the information, click “Register as a member” to successfully register, and the system will automatically jump to the homepage.
After the account is successfully registered, the system will assign a member account to the seller. The seller can use this account to sell goods. The seller can also change the account, set a personalized account name for himself, and modify the account information.
3.eBay account authentication.
After registering an account, you can list items. If you register an account on the Hong Kong site and list items on the Hong Kong site, you do not need to authenticate your identity. If you want to sell globally, you need to confirm the seller’s identity when submitting the listing, that is, account authentication. Account authentication can be completed through mobile phone text messages and credit cards.
